Amp Precautions

I've only been hit with 110, and it hurt like a bitch...I don't recommend it or any other voltage...

Could put a variac on it and lower it to ~90V to give the shock the "brown sound" feel...

But c'mon - gotta admit testing 9V batteries with your tongue is fun.   :icon_thumright:

I once managed to cause a dead short in a 10kW 3 phase motor drive (long story).  An 8 gauge wire vaporized before the fuse opened up.

BTW, this is what that fuse looked like before the 'incident':

Remember - probe with one hand!

Well I took the tube holder out, luckly it was the rightmost one and for some reason is on its own PCB so it was very easy to get to. I hit all the solder points with some flux and an iron and put everything back together. Seemed to do the trick I couldn't get it to fail after I put everthing back together. The old man has a gig tomorrow so I guess that will be the real test.

Thanks to all
